CHARITIES

Fellowship Indy believes that gay social organizations have an obligation to pay their gay civic dues by supporting gay charities. Fellowship Indy has in-depth knowledge of the following organizations and their leadership and provides 10% to 15% of its annual membership dues to these organizations. We encourage our members and others to individually provide donations.
